Abstract: Significance Spermatozoa have a streamlined shape to swim through the female reproductive tract to fertilize oocytes. However, little is known about the process of elimination of spermatid cytoplasm. When we created Tsks-null mice, the knockout… read more here.

Abstract: Silencing of transposable elements (TEs) by Piwi-interacting RNAs (piRNAs) is crucial for maintaining germline genome integrity and fertility in animals. To repress TEs, PIWI clade Argonaute proteins cooperate with several Tudor domain-containing (Tdrd) proteins at… read more here.
